Where Hope Begins
“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measuer that you us, it will be measure back to you.” Luke 6:38
Our History
The Mission was founded in 1939 as a “soup kitchen” for homeless men. Eighty-five years later, we are still providing the basic needs of food, shelter, clothing, education, and case management programs, not only to homeless men but also to homeless women and families and to low-income community residents.
The Huntington City Mission is the only full-service shelter in a 50-mile radius of Huntington, WV. Daily, the Huntington City Mission provides shelter for nearly 150 individuals, including an average of 20 children each night between the ages of birth to 18.
We help the homeless find work, teach them how to sustain jobs, budget their money and find permanent housing. The Huntington City Mission is one of the oldest non-profit, charitable institutions in Huntington. The Mission is governed by a Board of Directors composed of local business men and women.
The Mission’s shelters are open 24/7, 365 days a year.
